5796. Narrated ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Umar: When ‘Abdullāh bin Ubayy (bin Saḥl) died, his son came to Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Give me your shirt so that I may shroud my father's body in it. And please offer a funeral Ṣalāt (prayer) for him and invoke Allāh for his forgiveness." The Prophet ﷺ gave him his shirt and said to him, "Inform us when you finish (and the funeral procession is ready) call us." When he had finished, he told the Prophet ﷺ and the Prophet ﷺ proceeded to offer his funeral Ṣalāt (prayer), but 'Umar stopped him and said, "Didn't Allāh forbid you to offer the funeral Ṣalāt (prayer) for the hypocrites, when He said: 'Whether you (O Muḥammad) ask forgiveness for them (hypocrites) or ask not forgiveness for them; (and even) if you ask forgiveness for them seventy times, Allāh will not forgive them.' (V.9:80) Then there was revealed: 'And never (O Muḥammad ﷺ) offer Ṣalāt (funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies, nor stand at his grave. (V.9:84)?' Thenceforth the Prophet ﷺ did not offer funeral Ṣalāt (prayers) for the hypocrites.

5796 - حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ، أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ، جَاءَ ابْنُهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَعْطِنِي قَمِيصَكَ أُكَفِّنْهُ فِيهِ وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِ، وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُ. فَأَعْطَاهُ قَمِيصَهُ، وَقَالَ: «إِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْهُ فَآذِنَّا» فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ آذَنَهُ بِهِ، فَجَاءَ لِيُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ، فَجَذَبَهُ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ: أَلَيْسَ قَدْ نَهَاكَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى المُنَافِقِينَ، فَقَالَ: {اسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ أَوْ لاَ تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ إِنْ تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً فَلَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللَّهُ لَهُمْ} [التوبة: 80] فَنَزَلَتْ: {وَلاَ تُصَلِّ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ مَاتَ أَبَدًا وَلاَ تَقُمْ عَلَى قَبْرِهِ} [التوبة: 84] فَتَرَكَ الصَّلاَةَ عَلَيْهِمْ
